Both seal species are relatively close in size and appear to have mostly similar anatomical features with the ribbon seal being a bit more streamlined.

I plan on picking up a spare Safari Ltd Harp Seal and repaint it into a Ribbon seal. Thoughts?

I did the same with Schleich harbour seal long ago. It was my first repaint, and one of the first figures in my collection. It's a very easy painting to do. You will be very satisfied with the result if you do it well.

@Isidro yeah black/white organisms are super easy to paint.

How large is that Schleich Harbor Seal? I originally chose the Safari Ltd one as I mentioned due to accessibility and size, but I kinda want to avoid having two models in identical postures lol.
